I was going to leave the recruiting open, but since it took everyone a few days to respond, its not like Ive slammed the door shut on anyone. So Im going to close the recruiting.What Id like is to have everyones PC's by this coming Friday the 26th. I know creation can drag on- if you feel you cant meet the deadline just let me know ( note from your parents optional  )Questions.. here hopefully are some answers. I thought everyone had UA.   <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f600.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":D" title="Big grin    :D"  data-smilie="8"data-shortname=":D" /> Thanks to OGC heres skill and weapon group info:1. Prestige Classes: Right now all the DMG Prcs except the Red Wizard are allowed.2. Improving Level based skills: There are fewer ways to improve skills- skill focus and feats like alertness are really the only way. Racial modifiers and skill synergy still apply. Skills that cant be used untrained cannot obviously be used if they are cross class skills.For those of you who dont have AU the formula for skill checks is this:Class Skills:  1d20+ character level + modifierscross class skills:1d20 + modifiersYour average skill check may be less, but it improves obviously as you level. You also have a wider range of skills since you gain all the skills of your class.3.There are no ranks. However for purposes of feats, PRcs etc- it is assumed you have the max ranks in a class skill and none in cross class.4. Adding Class Skills: There are a few ways to add cross class skills. Multiclassing allows you to gain the skills of that class that you dont have. If intelligence is increased when levelling, you can pick a cross class skill as a class skill.The skill knowledge feat allows you to pick any 2 cross class skills as class skills.5. Humans and Item Familiars: Humans gain the skill knowledge feat at first level in lieu of the skill points. They can choose 2 cross class skills and add them to class skills. For player with an item familiar, the familiar has the skill knowledge feat in lieu of skill synergy at 1st level. The items owner can choose 2 skills to add to his or her class list.The item "lends" these skills to the owner. if the item is lost or seperated from the owner he looses the items skills as class skills.6. Weapon Groups:Weapon group proficiencies by class, taken at first level:Barbarian basic group plus any other 3Bard basic plus any other 2Cleric basic plus any other 2Druid basic plus either druid weapons or spearsFighter basic plus any four. Also, Weapon group (any) is added to Fighters list of bonus feats.Monk basic weapons plus any other one.Paladin basic plus any other 3Ranger basic plus any other 3Rogue basic plus any other 2Sorcerer basic plus either spears or crossbowsWizard basic or crossbowsFor Paragon levels taken at first level:Dwarf  treat as fighterElf  treat as rangergnome treat as bardhalfling treat as roguehalf orc treat as barbarianhuman treat as fighter ; for adaptive skill add one cross class skill to class skill.When multiclassing, add one weapon group when a new class is taken.Racial favored weapons and groups:Dwarf:Any dwarf who has weapon group axes is also proficient with the dwarven waraxe (for one handed use) and dwarven urgosh.Elf: All elves automatically have weapon group bows and either Weapon group (heavy blades) or WG (light blades)Gnomes: Any gnome who has WG (picks and hammers) is also proficient with the gnome hooked hammer.Weapon Groups by Type:Axes: handaxe, battleaxe,greataxe, and dwarven waraxe(2 handed use)Basic: club,dagger, quarterstaffBows:shortbow,longbow,composite short and longbow.Claw Weapons: punching dagger, spiked guantlet.Crossbows: heavy, light, repeating light and havey crossbowsDruid Weapons: club,dagger,dart,quarterstaff,scimitar,sickle,shortspear,sling, spearExotic double weapon: this feat gives profeciency in the exotic double weapon associated with groups you already have.
